ESCARNIUM - Dysthymia CD

The third full length of this Brazilian band playing dark death metal influenced by both European and US sound!

On their upcoming album Dysthymia Brazilian death metallers Escarnium conjure up some exceptionally gloomy and downcast death metal, depicting the world in sickening shades of gray. It's not exceedingly technical or dissonant -- their slowly unfurling riffs just tap into a subconscious well of unease that serves as the perfect setting for their similarly miserable subject matter, making sinking into this swamp easy.

Dysthymia is a murky, hefty slab of death metal that tackles two topics: mental illness and the horrors of the modern world.

"That is what Escarnium have done here – delivered a top quality, straight forward death or blackened death metal record. Great stuff."
- Games, Brrraaains & A Head-Banging Life

"The band’s third album is tight—both in length and approach. These guys just click. The sinewy riffs. The caustic, bellowing vocals. The commandingly dexterous drums. And as tight as Escarnium’s sound is, there’s an organic and almost instinctive feel to Dysthymia, as if they were merely channeling from some unknown energy source and not actually, you know, writing songs and playing their instruments."
